Is it okay to be naturally snide if I keep it under control?

My mum, who is also snide, says that I need to be careful that something snide doesn’t slip out one day, inappropriately, like it does with her. Is she right? It’s never happened for me, that thoughts slip out that are inappropriate.

Yeah it is risky. There is a propverb in my native language. "Arifin fikri neyse zikri de odur" its English translation is like this "a person's thoughts are reflected in his/her words"

Thank you for mho, my friend!!

What's wrong with snide? It is really just irony - the highest level of humor.

Thanks for a mho.

I’m willing to bet it’s just bluntness, not snide attitude. Though, given your background, I can see why your family tries to make it sound nicer than it is. Just be mindful of the way you phrase things and don’t give in to the gut instinct in the moment of speaking

LOL, I like people with a sharp wit and a tongue to match. It makes for a lot more laughs.
